Methow Valley Literary Events Calendar

Join Friends of the Winthrop Library (FOWL) and Methow Press in an engaging conversation about local writer Greg Wright's new three-volume collection of Wonderstruck essays.

Says John K. Roth: "Inspired to write by 'things that intrigue me,' the remarkable essayist Greg Wright grasps that our world is 'terribly inconvenient.' Time and again, it puts us in unplanned, unexpected, and unwanted times and places. But Wonderstruck, Wright’s brilliant trilogy, is intrigued by much more than that. In the deep-down feelings they evoke, Wright’s compelling essays, as insightful as they are diverse, show that what’s unplanned often makes good sense, what’s unexpected can fit just right, and what’s unwanted may lead to abundant joy. Joining Greg Wright in these pages is uplifting. Wonderstruck will keep you that way too."

FOWL's Craig Seasholes plays host and emcee in this deep dive into the world of Wonderstruck.

A day-long celebration of books, writers and book arts. Multiple concurrent opportunities to hear from local and regional authors and poets, hands-on book arts workshops, children’s authors, food and music will make it a day to remember.
